Day 9 Action!

Four games. We've never done it before. We've never even tried it before!

There was way too much action to actually give you the blow by blow, so I'll just put some thoughts in here...

Game 1:
Beetledouche vs. Chuck Duke Presents: Hairbags

Some folks thought this might be a matchup for the championship. Not to be, but still a hot game. Jonny's dealt with this pressure before and Ryan still sported his headband, but Morgan attempted far fewer slams and was much more successful than earlier in the tournament. Hmm... Jcho was Jcho. What can you say? Could Hairbags rally from their first round defeat and make it all the way through the Loser's Bracket?

Chuck Duke Presents: Hairbags: 21, Beetledouche: 14

Game 2:
Hot Buzz vs. Wax Off

JBrown: Is he crazier now that he's had a kid? Do we need to keep an eye on him? Is his little red choo-choo chugging around the corner? Should someone that unhinged be responsible for a tiny, helpless baby? I'm not talking about Mike Brunet. I'm talking about Chase Brown. FYI.

Overheard: "Tom Collins does not have the Eye of the Tiger." Could be, but Blaise has enough tiger for two. Despite their best efforts, Wax Off goes home.

Hot Buzz: 21, Wax Off: 18

Game 3:
Hot Buzz vs. Chuck Duke Presents: Hairbags

What does a juggernaut look like? It looks like the alien offspring of Jcho and Morgan Loomis, half Earthling, half Moonman. I quickly lost track of the score (even though we pestered Jance to shout out the score after nearly every point) and thought this was much closer than it was. I did a double take when it was over. Couldn't believe it.

Rally Chimp: "It's over?!?"
Brian: "Yeah, dude!"
Rally Chimp: "What was the score??"
Brian: "21-11."
Rally Chimp: "Oh, shit. I thought it was only like 11 to 8 or something."

Like a hot knife through soft butter.

Chuck Duke Presents: Hairbags: 21, Hot Buzz: 11

Game 4:
Chuck Duke Presents: Hairbags vs. Muffintops

Ye gods. The Wonder Twins: Vanquished! Muffintops were everybody's All-American, the teens loved them, and the Pong Gods seemed to smile upon them. They garnered most of the votes in every "Who Do You Think Will Win?" poll we conducted. Fan favorites throughout, the 'tops were cut down by the two teams who would eventually meet in the Finals. If there's any consolation in defeat, that's it. It took the top two teams to knock you out.

And would you look at that score? Can anyone beat Chuck Duke Presents: Hairbags at this point?

Chuck Duke Presents: Hairbags: 21, Muffintops: 8
